CONTENTS NOTE
Text of Note
Inform : graphic design focuses our eyes and mind on what is already instinctively hardwired -- Advocate : the language of advocacy has a common goal: alter behavior and act upon instincts, whatever the outcome may be -- Play : play adds dimension to design, enabling the viewer to have more active participation in it -- Caution : cautionary messages force the receiver to go somewhere or do something to avoid dangerous consequences -- Entertain : much graphic design cannot afford neutrality; it must grab attention in crowded environments -- Express ; a manifesto should be a declaration of war against complacency. At the very least it should trigger thinking -- Educate ; graphic design arguably is itself a grand portal to the process of education -- Transform : transformation is not more than making the real abstract and vice versa. It is about taking something familiar and making it serendipitous
